Advent Day 1: I Have to Earn Your Love

Reflect: “Man cannot live without love…he remains a being that is incomprehensible to himself, his life is senseless, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it, if he does not participate intimately in it…” Words of St. John Paul II the Great. Words we know,in the heart of our hearts, are true. But how do we let Love in? Meet us in the real stuff of our lives? All we have to do is ask. Love is waiting to hear from you.

Share: Ask for the grace to be humbly real with the places you need Love the most. Set time aside to pray and have a real heart to heart with Jesus. Be totally real with Him, and tell Him all about it. Then what? Stop talking. Ask Him what He thinks, what He is going to do about it. When we ask Love to come. He comes. O Come, O Come Emmanuel…
